What Catalight Foundation does
Mission
Our purpose is to break down barriers and biases within health systems through timely, equitable, and precise access to care. Radically transforming the autism & idd journey through value-based care.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Catalight formed and oversees catalight care services (ccs). As one of the largest behavioral health networks in the u.s., ccs manages approximately 120 provider organizations with more than 5,000 practitioners supporting 12,000+ individuals and families with 3m behavioral health care hours annually. Ccs provides diagnostic evaluations to help our largest funding partner ensure timely access to care, meeting strict regulatory requirements and member expectations. Ccs has been able to expand in these ways as we invested in a research and clinical excellence team that is shaping new standards of care with person-centered treatment options that meet families where they are, serve more diverse diagnoses as parity laws came into effect and drive greater affordability. Ccs was also awarded a continuation of carf accreditation for network management.

In anticipation of the continued rise in autism prevalence rates-expected to surpass the current 1 in 36-we officially launched the Catalight Foundation, our fundraising arm dedicated to driving systemic change. With demand for autism and I/dd evaluations rising, we remain committed to eliminating long wait times and moving beyond the outdated, one-size-fits-all approach to care. Too many families face delays of months-even years-just to receive a diagnosis, leaving children without the early support they need. Barriers like race, socioeconomic status and geographic location continue to limit access to evaluation and treatment. In some parts of the u.s., waitlists stretch two years, while 84% of counties lack adequate diagnostic resources. Join us in rewriting the story-because every family deserves answers, and every child deserves a chance to thrive. 2. Catalight has been investing in a research and clinical excellence team that is shaping new standards of care with person-centered treatment options that meet families where they are. Backed by more than a decade of experience and a multidisciplinary team of clinicians, we are reimagining the way people with developmental…

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2018 to 2019, from $78M to $115M (+48%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
0% of CATALIGHT FOUNDATION’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (1% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base narrowed from 8 funders to 4 funders, grant income rose $70k → $87k.
6 of 16 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 63% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of CATALIGHT FOUNDATION’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
CATALIGHT FOUNDATION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 35% of grant income and the top three 73%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
85% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund CATALIGHT FOUNDATION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 23% · 2018 38% · 2019 63% · 2020 65% · 2021 75% · 2022 58% · 2023 58% — growing more concentrated.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
31% of CATALIGHT FOUNDATION's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 69% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
63% of CATALIGHT FOUNDATION's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $199k that is directly attributable, 56% of it comes from funders outside California, across 4 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $334k arriving through sponsors registered in 6 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
